Everything I have cooked in it has come out Very Dry and over done, controlling the temp was a bit of a pain, When you lift the lid to dump out the ash or flip what you have inside it seems to take a long time to get it back up to temp.They make it look so Easy on their Web, but I have not had good results with mine yet. I put it in my shed about a year ago and have not used it since, not sure where your at but if you would like to try it before you buy one I would be more then happy to let you use mine, I will not be using it anytime soon I still need to break in the ProQ I got from Crash a few month ago.
